The main force of the 45th Army of the Sichuan Army assembled at Puyang Mountain, and then immediately launched a defensive posture. It is said to be the main force, but the establishment has long been crippled, and the strength is only 2,000 people.

The Japanese troops in the direction of Xiangcheng followed closely and quickly launched an attack. In a short time, the Japanese attacks everywhere were repulsed one by one.

After noon, the Japanese army regrouped and launched a fierce attack on Puyang Mountain, hoping to take the next Puyang Mountain. However, under the fierce counterattack of the Sichuan army, it was repulsed again. By the afternoon, the Japanese attack had become exhausted, and the attack began to be weak.

The defenders were still basking in victory, but they didn't know that it was all an illusion, and that a larger conspiracy was brewing for the Japanese army.

After the fall of Xiangcheng, the eastern line of the Jiehe River fell into the hands of the Japanese army. The main force of the Japanese army is being assembled, because there are several defensive lines from the southern line of the boundary river to Tengxian that need to be breached, and the Japanese army needs a large number of troops.

At this time, the Japanese troops in the direction of Jining simultaneously assembled on the stone wall and Shenjing defense line on the west line of the Jiehe River (this defense line is north of Puyang Mountain), and once it was breached, it could flank the Puyang Mountain defense line from the north and east directions.

The battle lasted for a day, and although the 45th Army held the defense line of Puyang Mountain, the main force of the Japanese army had also been assembled.

The next day, a unit of the Japanese army was responsible for making a feint attack on Puyang Mountain. Its main force made a detour to our right rear and advanced in the direction of Tengxian.

To the southwest of the Jiehe River, between Puyang Mountain and Teng County, the Japanese army encountered the reserves deployed here by the 41st Army of the Sichuan Army, and the battle was extremely fierce.

At the Puyang Mountain position, the Sichuan army easily repelled several rounds of Japanese attacks. Just as they were rejoicing in the victory, Shao Fei felt a different taste.

The Japanese attack in the east was not as frantic as before, and they retreated at every turn. There was also shelling, which stopped after a few shots, which was clearly a feint.

So, Shao Fei immediately left the position and went to the rear command.

"Who are you?"

A major general and division commander asked when he saw Shao Fei's people dressed up.

At this time, Wang Wenxi was at the headquarters and immediately explained the situation to his division commander. The division commander was in awe, with a look of admiration for Shao Fei.

"You are the famous Shao Fei. Twelve people attacked the logistics station of the devils and brought back ten truckloads of supplies. Also, you also took out the enemy's field hospital, which is amazing! It's really a hero out of a teenager. โ€

The division commander kept praising Shao Fei, but Shao Fei didn't care much about this, and said directly: "General, the situation is a little wrong, the Japanese army seems to be feintifying to attack the position."

The division commander waved his hand, disagreed with Shao Fei's reminder, and then said to Shao Fei: "The Japanese army encountered the resistance of Xiangcheng, Wangfuzhuang, and Jiushan, and then came to attack Puyang Mountain. They think they are tired teachers, and it is normal to show fatigue. Besides, it will take time for them to assemble their follow-up troops and get here again. โ€

Shao Fei did not agree with the teacher's opinion. Even as he said, the Japanese army would not use this kind of play that consumes meaninglessly.

In addition, the 10th Division of the Japanese Army is a type A mechanized division, and the assembly of troops can be completed in one day. However, today there are no assembled troops, so where have they gone?

"Jingle bells."

The phone rang suddenly, and it was the defenders in the area of Stonewall.

The division commander looked sad after answering the phone.

Wang Wenxi stepped forward and asked, "Commander, what's going on?"

The division commander replied: "I didn't expect the Japanese army to assemble so quickly. The stone wall and deep well on the left flank of the Jiehe River were attacked by the Japanese army in the direction of Jining, and the stone wall was in danger of being captured at any time. โ€

Wang Wenxi suggested: "Then are we going to go for reinforcements?" If the defensive line in that area is breached, our Puyang Mountain position will be attacked on both sides, and we must move at that time. โ€

Shao Fei on the side didn't care about this, he was still worried about Teng County, which was the ultimate goal of the Japanese army. And on the outside, they can evacuate at any time.

By this time, the fighting in the southwest of the boundary river had stopped. The reserve was routed by the 10th Wing of the Japanese Akashiba Yaezo, and the defenders retreated to the remnants of Asato.

The Japanese army was bound to win against Fuji County, so they sent the ace ghost Chichai. Although the 10th Wing has less than one and a half brigades, they are the elite of the elite, with more than 2,000 people in 7 squadrons, which is enough to capture Tengxian, which is now empty of troops.

The conspiracy of the Japanese army was not known to the Puyangshan Command, and that reserve belonged to the 41st Army and had no direct connection with them.

"Call from Fuji County!" The communications corps handed over the message to the division commander.

The division commander took the telegram with a puzzled face, and said: "Send a telegram, why don't you call directly?"

The division commander still did not know that the telephone line between them and Tengxian had been cut by the Japanese army. After reading the message, it dawned on me.

"Shao Fei, your judgment is right, they are indeed feints. The 10th Wing of the Japanese ace made a detour to intersperse the middle, cutting off the connection between Puyang Mountain and Teng County. โ€

The division commander put down the telegram with a depressed face.

At this time, a phone call came again, and the news came from the stone wall. The stone wall position has been broken by the Japanese army, so that Puyang Mountain will be difficult to protect itself when the mud bodhisattva crosses the river, and the defense line will be attacked from both sides.

Shao Fei immediately suggested, "Go and support Teng County." Now that Tengxian is empty, once it is broken, the outer defense line will be meaningless. โ€

"Impossible." The division commander looked helpless and said: "If we go to reinforce Teng County, we will be flanked by the Japanese army in the north, east, and south. The reason why we have been able to hold on to this is because of the advantages of our position and terrain. Once lost, the Sichuan army is vulnerable. โ€

The division commander's judgment was correct. Akashiba Yaezo also thought of this, leaving two squadrons to block reinforcements. Coupled with the Japanese army in the direction of Jining and the Japanese army now facing it, the 45th Army could only be completely annihilated by the tripartite attack.

(PS: The commander of the 45th Army was Sun Zhen of the 22nd Group Army, and he did not command at the front.) ๏ผ‰

The division commander finally made up his mind and ordered: "The defenders of the stone wall retreat to Shenjing, and order the 743rd Regiment of the 372nd Brigade to rush to the aid of Shenjing." The main forces moved in the direction of Huangshan. โ€

After Shao Fei listened, he turned around and was about to leave, and Wang Wenxi asked, "Where are you going?"

Shao Fei replied: "Back to Teng County, defending Teng County is my real task."

Wang Wenxi walked up to Shao Fei and reminded: "There must be Japanese troops defending the middle ground."

"Heh" Shao Fei laughed, turned around and said, "Where am I going, no one in this world can stop me." You and I will say goodbye and cherish each other. โ€

After speaking, Shao Fei left the headquarters.

When he came to the position, Shao Fei immediately called the special combat team to leave the defense line of Puyang Mountain and move quickly in the direction of Tengxian.

Towards evening, on the way to Teng County, the special combat team found dozens of corpses of Sichuan soldiers on the edge of the field not far away. So they quickly stepped forward to check, and the special combat team members were completely shocked.

The pillar reported to Shao Fei but said, "Captain, it's those wounded soldiers who withdrew to Teng County yesterday."

"I know!" Shao Fei looked at this miserable scene and roared angrily.

"Whew." Shao Fei tried his best to control his anger, and then said: "I know each and every one of them, and I ordered them to return to Teng County, but I didn't expect ......."

The special combat team members were as angry as Shao Fei, after all, they were once comrades-in-arms in the trenches.

"Tenth Wing, right?" Shao Fei suddenly said, "What should we do!?"

The special combat team members shouted loudly together: "Tooth for tooth, blood debt for blood!"
